Pertinence is a top-down adventure with minimalist graphics that explores various puzzle and action mechanics. The goal of the game is to freely explore rooms in a grid layout while collecting as many "alloy" as possible. These will unlock new areas and abilities.
To create an environment of self-discovery and curiosity, Pertinence instructs the player as little as possible.
The layout of the game allows you to pick and choose from various puzzle/action areas as you progress. Not all alloy need to be collected. Some are harder to collect than others.
Gameplay Features- The ability to bend and warp "soft" walls to your advantage (or to your disadvantage)
- "Nodes" are an important mechanic in Pertinence, but they require a long description (see below).
- Collectible impermanence. You can only keep alloy if you bring them to a checkpoint unharmed.
